Hi, I’m Jessica.

I’m a child and teen counselor offering play therapy in Mont Belvieu, Beach City, Dayton, and Baytown, TX. If you're a parent searching for someone who truly understands how children express their needs through play and behavior, someone who will meet your child with safety, patience, and curiosity, you’re in the right place.

My work is rooted in neuro-affirming play therapy and Synergetic Play Therapy, both of which respect how the brain and body process stress, trauma, and emotion. These evidence-based approaches help children learn to regulate their nervous systems, process big feelings, and grow in confidence, often without needing to use words.

I specialize in supporting children who are navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, emotional outbursts, ADHD, sensory processing difficulties, and family transitions like divorce or loss. For teens and adults, I provide individual trauma-informed counseling to help clients move through overwhelm, emotional disconnection, and stress with compassion and clarity.

Specialties

• Play therapy for trauma, anxiety, and behavioral concerns

• Emotional regulation support for kids with ADHD and sensory sensitivities

• Counseling for children facing family changes, grief, or separation

• Teen therapy for anxiety, school stress, and identity development

• Individual therapy for adults healing from childhood trauma or emotional burnout

What Therapy Looks Like With Me

In my child sessions, therapy often includes imaginative play, sand trays, drawing, movement, or even quiet moments of building safety together. I follow the child’s lead and pace, always attuned to their emotional world and nervous system needs.

For teens and adults, our work may include more conversation, grounding tools, and exploration of what’s behind the emotional distress or stuck patterns. My approach is relational, validating, and deeply respectful of your lived experience.

A Message to Parents

If your child is acting out, shutting down, or struggling emotionally, and nothing seems to work, you’re not alone. You may be feeling exhausted, worried, or unsure what to do next. I want to reassure you: you are not failing, and your child is not broken.

So many families in Mont Belvieu, Beach City, Dayton, and Baytown are navigating emotional and behavioral challenges. Therapy can be the bridge that reconnects your child to calm, confidence, and connection, and helps you feel hopeful again.
